By some miracle, with the help of a satellite, I won a ticket for $215. But I had no luck in the tournament.

mine is a $1000 buy-in ticketI got free at full tilt many years ago.
Ive also sattied into the sunday million a few times.
whats yours?
I won quite a few different tickets in satellites. One of them was a ticket worth $330 and it was my most expensive buy-in. But if we are talking about my most expensive buy-ins made with my money, I have never played in tournaments more expensive than $22.

When we compare the « style » of the players of a 2$ and a 22$ tournaments, what is mainly the difference?


a 2$ tournament and

The biggest guy in tournament that I played in was 1,050 buy PKO that I spin into for under 1 dollar. I managed to pull out 750 dollars in bounties because late reg was almost over whin=en I spun in. But I was still very happy with the results.

My biggest buy-in so far is $11. And it was too risky because my bankroll at that time was about $35 :)
I also won tickets and my most expensive ticket was for $109. And by the way, I haven't used it yet, I have this ticket on my balance :)

It was last winter and the buy-in for the tournament was $520 on pokerstars. It was the final satellite of the Titans Events (buy-in for the Main Event was over $1000, but I don't remember the exact amount). And I was chip leader, everything was going well, and then my electricity cut out and I lost by blinds. It was very frustrating. But I didn't spend any money as I won 3 satellites in a row before that. :)

at party poker I won a ticket for a 0.55 satellite and I won a ticket for 3.30 and I won a ticket for 16.50 and I won to play in a 530 tournament and I got it.
but I had one of my biggest frustrations in poker, because it was so difficult for me to be there, I made a terrible move that compromised my game.
I spent several days thinking about that move, thinking about all the difficulty I went through to get there.
But I learned my lesson, I hope to have another opportunity and try to make the most of it.(y)

My biggest buy-in was about $100. I won the ticket, of course, because I would never register for a tournament with a $100 buy-in for real money. I play tournaments because I don't like cash games, and basically all my tournaments have a buy-in of up to $5.5.

Biggest buyin online was 150$ for me for a MTT at GG with a 10M prizepool.
Made it to day 2 but busted before the big money ..
Some Sunday Millions but I don't count that since it had been won tickets

320-330 dollars, I don't remember exactly. But I remember for sure that it was a tournament at partypoker in the good times when I could still play on this site. I won this ticket, and thanks to this tournament, I significantly increased my bankroll. I think I won about $1200 back then.

I played once on a tourney for 109$ on GGpoker, but it was a promo ticket, I am not on the level to pay so much (own) money for a tournament.
